something quirky in SuSE, however, you can adjust it in the SuSE system
setup.
Here's what I need to do in SuSE 10.1-RC3:
Click Start | System | YaST, enter the root password;
In the left panel click "Hardware" icon;
In the right panel click "Graphics Card & Monitor" icon;
In the left panel, click "Monitor" icon (if not already selected);
The right panel is titled "Card and Monitor Properties";
Press the OK button;
In the pop-up window with "Final Steps", press button "Test";
After a little "think-time", the video adjustment screen comes up. Here
you can adjust where on the physical screen the screen image is
displayed. Use your mouse to shift things around and/or reduce/enlarge.
Once you are happy, exit & save; exit;
Logout and log back in to put the new settings into effect.
HTH,

Thanks for the suggestion but it does not "move" the screen. My own experience
of that tool indicates that is another way of dealing with minor CRT differences
in the same way that the on screen monitor adjustments work.
This one has the display about an inch up from the base and the top is "wrapped'
under the bottom

Have you checked the hot-key layout for the laptop? On my Dell, when I have the same problem, I toggle the CRT/screen hot key F8 then cycle my screen resolutions using ctrl-Alt-; hotkey to resize the screen.
